Autumn Leaves is lovely. New, and you can tell. Beautiful appointments. Extremely secure. Just for the memory-impaired. Not exactly right for my Mom at this time, because she is at a bridge between doing most things on her own, but not managing her medication, phone calls, etc. Again, if your parent needs more hands on, this is great.

Moms new home

The facility that Mom was in was nice but too costly so we asked A Place for Mom to help us find one more reasonable. Autumn Leaves fit the bill. A few of my sisters checked out the home and said that it was very nice. Clean, colorful and had friendly people. Mom loves people. Everyone was very helpful in the transition of moving her in a very speedy manner. She seems very happy with her new home.

Autumn Leaves is a wonderful place!!

We did look at a few communities and I know we made the right decision to go with Autumn Leaves as it was the highest of the pack. The community offers memory care and although a lot of the staff is young they are well trained and often change jobs within the community to keep them from getting bored. My husband has been doing better since moving in and is happy with the food and most of the staff. They offer many activities and although he is not able to participate in the activities that require concentration there are other ones he does participate in. The new activities director is great and the residents respond well to her. I would recommend this community to anyone looking for memory care.

Things have fine for us since my wife move into Autumn Leaves. The community is very clean and well kept. The staff has been great and kind to us and very helpful with my wife and all her needs. My wife hasn't partaken in any activities yet, but hopefully she can soon when she feel like it. The food is home cooked and fresh every time they serve the food and that is really nice.
